Downtown Transit

Passenger Rail Service

The Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) was formed in 2003 when the cities of Denton, Lewisville and Highland Village voted to fund transit in Denton County through sales tax revenues. Two transit stations are in the City of Denton. The terminating station for the system is located in Downtown Denton, providing passenger rail service from Denton to Carrollton, where riders may transfer to the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) system and continue into the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. The system began operation in June 2011.

The Downtown transit station is less than one-half mile from the historic Downtown Square. The City is currently planning an Arts Corridor so that the transit passengers’ walk from the station to Downtown will be pleasant and enjoyable.  For information click here http://www.dcta.net
